Whitening/Bleaching
Over time our teeth tend to become discolored or stained. Whether this is from aging, smoking, coffee, or any other foods, a beautiful smile could be closer than you think. We offer a safe, inexpensive solution to an unsightly smile. Whitening your teeth is a very simple procedure that can be completed in relatively short period of time, often in just 1 HOUR !
Procedure
We offer a variety of tooth whitening systems, tailored to fit the needs and lifestyles of our patients. They may be divided into two basic categories-- at home whitening and in office whitening , or BriteSmile.
At-Home Tooth Whitening
The first step in the whitening process is impressions. We will take full impressions of your upper and lower teeth. These impressions will be made into custom bleaching trays. The trays will fit onto your teeth perfectly so that the whitening gel is placed where we want it, on your teeth and not on your gums and lips. This is an important distinction from the store-bought gels and strips which apply this material everwhere and anywhere.
The second step is to place the whitening solution in the trays and wear them for half an hour a day, ideally twice a day. Within 7-10 days, you will see a significant improvement in the color of your teeth. Your smile will look brighter and younger. We will often take before and after photos so that you will be able to compare the amazing transformation.
Bleaching only works on natural teeth and may not be effective in all cases. We will happily inform you as to the potential whitening for your specific situation to see if this can fulfill your expectations!
